Gawain faced a firing cannon with four solid wooden wheels behind the earthen basket guard in the distance, it had just fired one shot violently, and because of the recoil, it forcibly withdrew from the two rut marks, which was also cast in bronze, the breech was thick and long, and the rear bulge was much larger than the perfume bottle ammunition room, using a large iron ball to load from the breech, "A single iron ball can destroy a vehicle, and it can also smash through the thick wooden gate and stone wall, but the loading speed is much slower than the perfume bottle, and it can only shoot two or three rounds in an hour, which is a siege cannon." When the Great Plani Archardon smashed the towers of the place, the fiery bear cannon was able to penetrate the walls and gates, opening gaps. ”

"With all that said, can you get your bear claws out of the way?" At this time, at the end of the fort, Gao Wen, who was explaining seriously, was holding the soft and thin shoulders of the little sunfish with both hands.

"The Persian perfume bottle has already arranged for the weapons workshops of Alarman and Seleucia to produce twenty-four pieces, and it would be good if two of these fire bear cannons could be completed next spring." As he left the town, Gawain held the hilt of the Sword of Phosphorus Fire hanging from his waist and spoke to Agnes, who was walking briskly ahead.

"Then what do you need me to come back for?"

"Because of the more complex hinge machinery you have to complete, as well as the methods that can remove the silt from the estuary, and the design of the graded sluice when digging the canal, I need a lot of places from you." When Agnes heard the big brown bear brazenly making this or that request behind her, she couldn't help but turn around in anger and ready to reprimand.

Then she saw the great patron in the brown-black-red cloak at sunset, pulling the bridle of the black mare, looking at her with pale blue eyes very sincerely, and added calmly and sincerely, "In any case, I am grateful that you can return to Tarsus at such a juncture to be by my side and Anna." ”

So the little sunfish didn't say anything, but continued to walk along the road on the hillside, leading his mule down, "These two weapons can easily hit the emperor's army, right?" So I don't have to say that it's so important, there's no need for a compliment for me. ”

At this moment, on the hill, Gawain held Sabina by the hand, standing on the edge of the high Alarman River, watching the large workshop that cleverly spread down like a ladder, as well as the large hospital in the distance, and the bird's-eye silhouette of Alalmanburg and Seleucian Fort, the fields and mulberry plants under the rows of various turning windmills, and the sea blurred into a gray line in the distance, "No, the two weapons can indeed increase the strength of the Guardian Army, but the emperor may send 40,000 or even 50,000 people to attack me this time, and our first-line military strength should be less than 20,000 people. At the most dangerous time, the little sunfish will be in the spring and summer of the following year. With that, Gawain turned his head, his short brown hair floating slightly, the horns of his cloak dancing lightly in the hulala, his eyebrows and beard looking very majestic and masculine in the afterglow of the seashore, but his words were very gentle," Agnes said. Prani, Anna and I ask of you, along with the others, to help us with all our might, and when the trouble has passed, we will eat the sweetest rice and citrus, and live in the most beautiful mansions and palaces, and take the most luxurious paddle yachts, and conquer all the land and sea. When the whole island of Respos is taken, I will take it back from the Emperor for you, and in the future it will be renamed 'Prani'. ”

"I want to punish your 'sleeping officer' Wen Ruomina well and fiercely!" Just as Gawain flickered with the golden beauty in front of him, the little sunfish resolutely raised the wooden handle of the horsewhip, stretched it out in front of Gawain's eyes, and proposed the terms of exchange, "As long as such conditions can be met, I can also promise you an additional way to work with the director of the Ordnance Department, Samuelfa, to step up the research and development of the modified long firebolt you mentioned." ”

"Why bother, Agnes? The sleeping officer is a poor person, she just hopes to marry a pious, reliable and serious person in the future. You still don't want to be willful. ”

"I--I want to be willful." Agnes is unrelenting.

"Okay, no problem at all. I like smart and headstrong girls. Gawain's big hand grasped the tip of Agnes's whip, and the two of them pulled each other slightly, and readily said that the oath had been fulfilled, and in this way, Wen Ruomina was secretly sold, "But she is now on the plateau, and I will definitely fulfill your wish when I have the opportunity." ”

"Ahh In the distant castle of Meritane, the sleeping officer who was working with all her strength to deal with the document suddenly became dizzy, and even sneezed several slightly, and the reed pen in her hand couldn't help but slip onto the writing desk, her black eyebrows wrinkled like willow charcoal, and her clean and delicate fingers rubbed the bridge of her nose uneasily, still puzzled what was wrong......

Two days later, Gawain, who had returned to the palace city of Tarsus, coughed lightly, took Anna's arm, walked through the closed passage between the two walls, and came to the transept of St. Paul's Cathedral, where several maids and servants of the palace under the command of Stauracios lit the fish-paste lamps in front of the door and in the hall with a long crank spoon, and Patriarch Anselm was sitting on his chair with some resentment under the brilliant frescoes.

"Your Highness, the Great Lord Patron, before you think about how to defend against the enemy, the first thing you need to think about is your own integrity. You promised me that upon the completion of this influential church, I would be recognized as Archdeacon at the grand inauguration ceremony. But now you have relinquished this position to an Orthodox Christian, sorry Caesar, and I say this not because of some vicious resentment against the Orthodox Church. Anselm stood up, clutching the rosary tightly, his eyes raging and complaining, sometimes passionate, sometimes repentant, chattering at the couple in front of him.

But then Gawain sat down calmly, knocked on the handrail, and smiled so that the patriarch was dumbfounded, "I think it's too aggrieved to let you be the chief deacon of the cathedral, if you don't mind, please be patient and wait for three to five years, if I defeat the emperor, unify the plateau and revive Rome, then I will propose that the Eastern and Western Orthodox Churches and the Ecumenical Church reunite, and then you will be the intermediary." ”

"What, what!" Anselm's bald hair was violently constricted, and beads of sweat oozed from itβ€”sixty years ago, the Eastern and Western churches issued excommunication orders against each other, and since then the churches of Rome and Constantinople have been incompatible with each other, and if Gawain can really promote his unification and make himself the most important intermediary, he will be a brilliant saint, and his merits will be more outstanding than that of Leo IX, Gregory VII, and Urban II.

But the couple's expression did not seem to be joking, because Anna also put her finger to her lips, and her expression was very nervous and cramped, "Please protect this great secret patriarch, for I am the most devout Orthodox Christian, and if the clergy and the faithful of this land know that my husband and I are plotting such a plan, all the Orthodox churches and monasteries will refuse to pray for me - I, I am completely captive of Gawain's love."
